My friends in my sewing circle have all decided to sew the Life’s a Hoot! BOM this year. As with the dove project, it will be fun to follow their progress and see how each walhanging turns out.
Bachita started hers first, and has her tree appliquéd. She is now starting to work on the owls.
Susy chose a different color for her tree trunk. I can already tell that the fabric choices are going to make for interesting projects.
Another friend of ours has given us a ton of plaid and striped fabric samples, so at our get-together yesterday we spent some time looking through them and choosing those we liked best.
Hmmm… time now to think of ow to use these samples. I’m thinking manly quilts!
I am a self-learner. I taught myself to sew and to quilt. And I taught myself how to draw. I am learning how to dye my own fabrics and am dabbling with mixed media. I am a quilt designer and teacher, and design and publish my own line of quilt patterns. With this blog I would like to share the bits and pieces of my life.
